  • The company is opening a new store in The Villages, Fla., and another location in an existing market.
  • Retail square footage is expected to increase approximately 1% versus 2020.
  • Planned capital expenditures for 2021 are approximately $23.0 million.
  • Effective tax rate for 2021 is expected to be 24.0% excluding the impact from the vesting of stock-based awards and potential new tax legislation.

Headwinds

  • Fixed and discretionary expenses within SG&A for the full year of 2021 are expected to be in the $265.0 to $268.0 million range.
  • Variable SG&A expenses for the full year of 2021 are anticipated to be in the 17.5% to 17.8%.
